Jason Palmer Wins First In Late Models At The Waterford Speedbowl; Glenn Colvin Wins In Mini Stocks

WATERFORD - Jason Palmer held off Anthony Flannery over the closing laps to win the 30-lap Late Model feature Saturday at the Waterford Speebdowl.

It was the first career victory in the division for Palmer, of Berlin, who started in the division in 2010 after six years of success in the Legends Car division at Waterford.

"I wish it happened a long time ago, but I'll take it any time I can get it," Palmer said. "It started off that we were trying something different, we were trying to put a Legend Car setup in a big car. It didn't work too good in a Late Model. Finally we got this thing back to basics. Simple is sometimes better."

Flannery, of East Hampton, was second and Bruce Thomas Jr. of Groton third.

In the 25-lap Mini Stock feature it was Glenn Colvin of Clinton holding off Ken Cassidy Jr. of Lisbon for the victory. Chris Williams of Waterford was third.

Esposito got screwed............Plain and Simple!Watch the video on Sids Vault.I have been going to the Bowl since 1975,And thought i had seen it all!Whats next........Phantom debris cautions.Its obvious the Bowl has decided who will win and how!Its a Discrace!

so when the race director tells the leader that the last restart was no good and to maintain his lane all the way through the restart, and the leader does the same thing again, what? just let it go?

if your driver doesnt win, it's always the same...

"the track has favorites and wants them to win"

what are you going to say when TC lines up on the pin July 16th? he's got 3 crappy finishes to back it up.
